Number of books each of them have:
Jaime: x
Grant: x - 6
Ky: 3 (x - 6)
There are 176 books in total, so we can write it down as:
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 (x - 6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3 * x + 3 * (-6)
176 = x + x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 2x - 6 + 3x - 18
176 = 5x - 24 / + 24 (both sides)
5x = 200 / ÷ 5 (both sides)
x = 40
Doublecheck:
Jamie: 40
Grant: 40 - 6 = 34
Ky: 3 (40 - 6) = 3 * 34 = 102
102 + 34 + 40 = 176, so it's correct :)
Answer: the final mass of the solid is 176 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
The "change" between two quantities, one initial Qi and one final Qf is defined as:
Change = Qf - Qi.
In this case, the quantity is mass, and we know that the initial mass is 260 grams.
And we also know that the change is -84 grams.
Then we have the equation:
Qf - 260 g = -84g
Qf = -84g + 260g = 176g
So the final mass of the solid is 176 grams.
The function would be the initial plus growth rate * # years
So: f(x) = 9.05 + 0.031(7)
Where x= # years
Its is two since you take out the decimals then divide regularly
So we are given that he ordered a $15 meal
now we need to find how much will he have to pay with tax and tip
so first we find the sales tax of the meal
5% * 15 = 3/4 or 0.75
and the tip
15% * 15 = 9/4 or 2.25
we will add that to the meal price to find the total
15 + 2.25 + 0.75
total is 18
So <span>If Allam ordered a $15 meal, we will have to pay $18 with tax and tip

Hope this helps :)
